Tiny Apalachicola is often overlooked by Florida visitors lured by the state's bigger tourist draws such as Disney World, South Beach and Key West. Apalachicola is home to generations of oyster workers who still pull oysters from the shallow bay with shovel-length tongs and break the oysters apart with hammers. Several blocks of old brick buildings feature a few gift and antique shops, restaurants and bars. Abandoned oyster processing houses, beat-up old boats, palm trees, pelicans and small pastel-painted houses dot the shoreline. Indian Pass Raw Bar is a popular spot for oysters about 18 miles outside of town; 8391 County Road 30A, Port St.
